2nd Trimester

When did your voracious appetite kick in?

Mine hit this week... fortunately even though I get so hungry, when I eat I fill up fast!

I hopped on the scale and I haven't gained more than 4lbs. since the beginning so I feel like that is a small victory.

I already ate my lunch but I am still hungry!Embarrassed

Re: When did your voracious appetite kick in?

  • This morning...I've spent most of the day eating.  I've only gained 1 lb so far, but have another dr. appt. this Friday and I have a feeling that number has increased.

  • Mine hit about your time and went away about a week later. It came back yesterday worse than ever so I'm thinking it will go away in about a week or so.

    I think I remember somebody telling me our appetites get bigger when we are about to go through a growth spurt.

  • 22 weeks. It's like a switch was flipped. Will someone show me where it is so I can turn it off?! Lol
  • I get spurts. If that makes sense. Sometimes Im just not hungry at all because im feeling blah. But othe times ill eat a full meal, and still want more. Really just depends how I feel.

  • yesterday. I had a Subway veggie sandwich for lunch then a couple of hrs later I was hungry again. SO I ate the spinach pie I originally brought for lunch. I felt like a piggy.

  • Thanks for asking!! I was wondering the same thing- I eat like I did before I got pregnant.. and that sometimes includes just Lunch, Snack, and Dinner! I don't like getting out of bed early if I don't have to work so I skip breakfast a lot (I know-- not good)

  • mine hit about 18 weeks. My m/s finally went away fully and i woke up one day totally starving wanting to eat anything and everything! That's pretty much how it still is lol.
  • I think around 12.5 weeks is when I started eating a lot. I'll eat two lunches most days. I just ate four huge pieces of pizza and I could eat more. It takes a LOT for me to feel miserably full now days and before I always made myself miserable lol. I love food, what can I say?

  • It changes day by day.  I had really hungry days starting about 6 weeks.  I was either starving today, or was green at the gills all day.

    But like you, it doesn't take much to fill me up (and I am very careful not to get too full) so I usually end up dividing all of my meals into two and eating one, then having the other about 2 hours later.

  • I can't say that my appetite has changed. It's pretty much remained the same, but unlike you I've gained about 14lbs so far.

  • Probably around 15 weeks.

    I can eat and eat and eat and still not feel full though. It's a problem. Smile

  • I go back and forth.  It seems like I will be constantly eating for a couple days, then go back to normal for a couple more.  At least when I'm eating often, it's small amounts - as hungry as I am I get full fast.

    Right now I'm in a constant eating mode, so I'm off to find something to eat!

  • I started having hunger pains every 2-3 hrs starting from week 5!

    I had my 1st appt on 03/11 and my 2nd appt just 04/12 and I've gained 7 lbs.  The nurse kind of looked at me sidweways and said, "Well, we don't have to put you on a diet yet." ....  great.  lol

  • I think 16-18 weeks. And I honestly think it has just stopped this week. I barely noticed it, but all of a sudden I was like, "wow, I haven't eaten in a couple hours and I'm not panicking or eating my fingers - score"
  • Mine really kicked in at about 21-22 weeks.  It does still go in waves though.  Sometimes I can eat dinner and still feel like I didn't eat anything and others I eat something small and feel so full I could explode.
  • 21 weeks.  I am starving all.the.time. I try to fill up on fruits, veggies, and nuts as much as possible.  I could do some real damage if I put junk food in front of me!
